Ann (Sarah Polley) is 23, has two daughters, a husband, Don (Scott Speedman) and lives in a trailer at the back of her mother's home in Vancouver. Her grey existence is transformed however when she discovers she has an untreatable condition. Keeping this a secret, she makes a list entitled 'Things to do before dying' which she completes little by little. Unexpectedly, Ann discovers an appetite for life that drives her to live with a sensual and furious intensity she had not known before. She prepares her daughters for life without her, meets a man (Mark Rufffalo) whom she seduces, and paradoxically heals...and faces each next day with a courage she never knew she had.

A quiet, unheralded film involving ordinary people but a situation we all face at some time.
It made you, willingly, think on a tangent to the usual daily thoughts.
We hired it only because of the wonderful Sarak Polley and are so glad we did because, apart from Sarah, who was excellent, we have discovered Isobel Croisset (sp?).
Thanks Kino!
